4, intramolecular C—H
O and N—H
O hydrogen bonds result in the formation of two nearly planar six-membered rings; these are almost coplanar with the adjacent six-membered ring. In the crystal structure, C—H
O hydrogen bonds link the molecules.

The title compound was synthesized according to the literature method (Li et
al., 2006). Crystals appropriate for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow
evaporation of the dichloromethane solution at 283 K.
H atom (for NH) was located in difference syntheses and refined [N—H =
0.920 (18) Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N)]. The remaining H
atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H = 0.93 and 0.96 Å, for
aromatic and methyl H atoms and constrained to ride on their parent atoms,
with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.2 for aromatic H
and x = 1.5 for methyl H atoms.

Special details top
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes)
are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken
into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles
and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only
used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic)
treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s.
planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor
wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional
R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for
negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 >
σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc.
and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement.
R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large
as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be
even larger. |

Pyrimidine derivatives have broad biological properties: in particular pyrimidinylbenzoate is a highly effective herbicide with acetohydroxy acid synthese (AHAS) as target (Duggleby et al., 2000). We report herein the crystal structure of one such pyrimidine derivative, the title compound, (I).
In the molecule of (I), (Fig. 1) the bond lengths and angles are generally within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987). Rings A (C1—C6), B (C8—C13) and C (N2/N3/C15—C18) are, of course, planar and the dihedral angles between them are A/B = 16.40 (3)°, A/C = 87.51 (2)° and B/C = 87.15 (3)°. The intramolecular C—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) result in the formation of the nearly planar six-membered rings; D (O1/N1/C7—C9/H9) and E (N1/O2/C8/C13/C14/H1A), which are oriented at a dihedral angle of D/E = 3.05 (2)°. They are also oriented with respect to ring B at dihedral angles of D/B = 2.60 (3)° and E/B = 0.94 (3)°. So, rings B, D and E are nearly co-planar.
In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules, in which they may be effective in the stabilization of the structure.
